Jacob plays with a friend! This is Jake's friend Ricky. Ricky is two months older than Jake. He can be an overwelming force in Jake's world when he wants to be. But the two of them get along real well just the same.

The first time they were together, they pretty much ignored each other. These days, they trade toys and gigles.

Sitting up at the dinner table!

Here he is, waiting to be fed. He eats oatmeal mixed with fruit. We buy Nature's Best bottled baby food for him.

Now that he has three teeth (all in the front, two lower and one upper) we give him Cheerios. We have to soak them first, so they are soft and easy to eat.
